Even if these corporations and governments care less about #a11y (especially in North America), we all must continue the work and maintain the movement.

We got a long way to go. By our own, but united.

I am going to need to help a PwD set up their Director ID but the government website is APPALLING

 

Bad enough that the website and process are set up in such a way that the fully cognitively competent adult cannot undertake the task independently...

It seems there is no special assistance available for the physically disabled although the website "aims" to be accessible - how thoughtful *eye roll*

It certainly doesn't achieve it 😬

Note to Government: phones don't work for everyone!!!!!

And the NRS is not the optimal alternative for all people.

If you really want to funnel EVERYONE through just one or two communication methods then you need to make those methods as inclusive as possible

Yay! Somewhere where I can record all the good places to go - and also all the places to avoid!!!!!

Spending today updating pins for https://wheeleasy.org, an app that people with disability can use to confirm #accessibility of various venues around Australia - just rolled out to Melbourne.

Anyone can sign up and add photos and descriptions. I have it bookmarked on my phone so I can quickly add a venue as I go around. #accessibilityforall #AccessibilityIsAHumanRight
